The mean (of the z-scores) will be zero (0), and the new std dev will be 12/n, where n is the number of scores.

Answer:

The mean and standard deviation for the sample of z-score is 0 and 1 respectively.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a sample mean, M = 85

Standard Deviation, s = 12

Let x_i's be the sample.

Then, this sample can be transformed into z scores with the help of transformation:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x_i - M}{s}

This process is known as standardization.

Then, the mean of new obtained sample is 0 and the standard deviation is 1.

First, she needs to find her resting heart rate by counting her pulse for one minute immediately after she wakes up for 5 days i
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

She finds her average resting heart rate to be 62 after  5 days.

That means, average of the 5 heart rate pulse=62

If the last day was 58 and all the other days were the same.

Let x be her pulse on the other days,

Then,

Average, 62=\dfrac{58+4x}{5}\\\text{Cross Multiply}\\58+4x=62 X 5\\\text{Suntract 58 from both sides}\\4x=(62X5)-58\\4x=310-58\\4x=252\\\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\x=63

Her pulse on all the other days is 63.

a recipe uses 1 1/4 cups of milk to make 10 servings. if the same amount of milk is used for each serving, how many servings can
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1\frac{1}{4} cups of milk make 10 servings

1\frac{1}{4} can also be written as 1.25

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 1.25 : 10

1 gallon = 16 cups

Let,

x be the number of servings made from 1 gallon

Ratio of cups of milk to servings = 16 : x

This is a direct proportion

1.25 : 10 :: 16 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

10*16 = 1.25x

160 = 1.25x

1.25x=160

Dividing both sides by 1.25

\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{160}{1.25}\\x=128

Hence,

128 servings can be made using 1 gallon of milk.

What is YZ ? Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.
Jobisdone [24]
If you look at the figure, triangles XVW and ZYW are similar. So, you can use ratio and proportion to solve this problem. Notice that there are tick marks on th other two sides of the bigger triangles. That indicates that the like signs of ticks are equal. For example, that means XZ = ZW and that XW = 2XZ = 2ZW. 

24.4/YZ = XW/ZW
24.4/YZ = 2ZW/ZW
24.4/YZ = 2
Solving for YZ,
<em>YZ = 12.2</em>

Isaiah scores with 50% of his penalty kicks in soccer. He flips two fair coins to conduct a simulation with 20 trials to determi
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The probability that Isaiah will make both penalty kicks is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Isaiah scores with 50% of his penalty kicks in soccer.

He flips two fair coins to conduct a simulation with 20 trials to determine the likelihood that he will make his next two penalty kicks.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

P(X =r) = \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r};x=0,1,2,3,......

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 2 penalty kicks

           r = number of success = make both penalty kicks

           p = probability of success which in our question is probability  

                 that Isaiah scores with his penalty kicks, i.e; p = 50%

Let X = <u><em>Number of penalty kicks made by Isaiah</em></u>

So, X ~ Binom(n = 2 , p = 0.50)

Now, Probability that Isaiah will make both penalty kicks is given by = P(X = 2)

                     P(X = 2) =  \binom{2}{2} \times 0.50^{2} \times (1-0.50)^{2-2}

                                   =  1 \times 0.50^{2} \times 0.50^{0}

                                   =  <u>0.25 or 25%</u>

Hence, the probability that Isaiah will make both penalty kicks is 25%.

Each of the 10 students in the baking club made 2 chocolate cakes for a fundraiser. They all used the same recipe, using C cups
8090 [49]

Answer:

The expression is C/20 cups of flour in one cake

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- There are 10 students

- Each one made 2 chocolate cakes

- They all used the same recipe

- The total amount of flour is C cups

* Lets change these information to equation

∵ There are 10 students

∵ Each student made 2 cakes

∴ The total number of cakes = 10 × 2 = 20 cakes

∵ The total amount of flour for the twenty cakes is C cups

- To find the amount of flour in each cake divide the total amount

  of flour by the total number of the cakes

∴ The amount of flour in each cake = C/20

* The expression is C/20 cups of flour in one cake
